Cheltenham day three: Flooring Porter retains Stayers’ Hurdle title in style

Day three of the 2022 Cheltenham Festival has got underway, with seven races on the card:

Winner: Coole Cody (Evan Williams) - 22/1

Coole Cody registered a fourth success at Cheltenham when rallying in tremendous style to lift the Craft Irish Whiskey Co. Plate Handicap Chase.

Evan Williams’ charge was always close to the pace looked booked for minor honours at best in the closing stages, but he found that bit extra to land the spoils.

Imperial Alcazar put in a strong bid but Coole Cody (22-1) led over the final fence and stormed up the hill to win by six and a half lengths in the hands of Adam Wedge. Spiritofthegames was a nose away in third with Stolen Silver fourth.
